stepping long, I'm home on the sidewalk

a marionette is slain

your legs are wood and tied to the city

who has final say

it's hard to hold the girders my brother

it's hard to swing and walk

with your temper one beat less than teh other

and three times more in fall

I don't know why don't know why

don't know why you stay

yeah don't know why don't know why

don't know why you stay

if we swim away we're stuck on horizon

just catch it when it goes

or to take a piece and pull back the curtains

and there's nothing left but yoru clothes

I don't know why don't know why

don't know why you stay

I don't know why don't know why

don't know why you stay

know....

(instrumental bridge)

(guitar kicks in)

the strings awry you move to Geppeto

the day, the hourglass

this match made was made in a moment

but now that moment's past

I don't know why don't know why

don't know why you stay

I don't know why don't know why

don't know why you stay

I don't know why don't know why

don't know why you stay

don't know why don't know why

don't know why you stay...

know....
